TMSG: ‘Adopt A Grandparent’ Program Brings Joy To Senior Citizens

Tiffany Donovan owns Confetti Castle in Charlotte, North Carolina and her business is all about spreading joy. Her business is all about delivering happiness with balloons.

She told WCNC Charlotte that lately she’s been having a hard time fighting the bright spots of things. So she wanted to help bring some bright spots for the elderly in her community. She created the ‘Adopt A Grandparent’ program at her business. For just $25, people can have a bouquet of balloons delivered to a Charlotte-area nursing home.

So far she’s seen 417 adoptions and counting, totaling at least $10,500 in the first three days. Donovan said her goal is just to make people feel loved, “People are saying, ‘I’m doing this in honor of my grandmother who passed away during COVID. And we didn’t get to hug her for six months.’ Like, it’s heartbreaking.”
